My Thoughts on the Firefox situation

• I’ve used Firefox since it was Mosaic, and when it was called Netscape Navigator.

• I agree that the removal of the promise not to sell your data is bad, and the new EULA is bad.

• I worry about the long term product development of Firefox

• I question the role of the fork in development, meaning I don’t know how much they can do on their own without Firefox proper.

• Firefox sync is an important feature to me. I’m open to self-hosting but not losing it.

• I’m open to new browsers for the future, but this is a huge effort.

• Brave is NOT the solution. No way, no how.

• We need an alternative to Webkit based browsers.

• Firefox will have lessons for us about FLOSS sustainability. We don’t know what those lessons are yet.
